But it's still available here.....   

And here.

And here's a compilation of some of his meltdowns and general idiocy....grab it while you can.

And you've got to LOVE this!

Funny how in Top Secret! back masking sounds Swedish and safe but with O'Reilly it sounds German and threatening.

People like ol' Bill are part of why so many people in other countries around the world hate America... he is the face that people see, and they think the rest of Americans are exactly the same. Yeesh.

Not knowing what the hell this was the first time I clicked on it I found it amusing for a bit.
Bert & Ernie go BRUTAL

This is going to be the most popular video in the history of YouTube....

Jeezus.  The amount of time and work that must've taken...

[Tripe]

It reminds me of somebody's work but I'm not sure who.

How would you like this to be your commute to work?

Little documentary I made about Anosmia, or not being able to smell.

Ah the importance of paying attention in History Lessons:

Regardless of political persuasion, if you're going to talk about a historic event it might be useful to be familiar with said event.

The fucking Path to 9/11 movie? Dude's grasping at straws saying they need to watch that movie to get some perspective. That's like telling someone to watch the Shadow of the Vampire to get perspective of the actual filming of the Nosferatu.

Wow. That really gets the adrenaline going.
Still, I liked the line, "You don't understand what 'appeasement' means, don't use the word." 

It was interesting that the guy was INCAPABLE of answering anything without using his five pre-programmed "talking point" words.  I've met students who are similar and when you pin them down, haven't actually read the assigment (or are talking about the movie Troy instead of the Iliad).

I also found it amusing that when the one guy said "Hey, read this book" the other one replied with "Well watch this movie."

Sort of shows a difference in how well-educated they are right there.

Appeasement, noun - 1) Closing eight military bases in Saudi Arabia and flying the entire bin Laudin family out of the US right after 9-11 (because that was what Osama said he wanted) plus continuing to do business with the bin Laudin family as Dubya and family has.  2) Financing the Nazi government and plotting to overthrow the FDR administration as Dubya's grandfather, Prescott Bush did.

Pot....Kettle for you, line 2.

The second would be more collaborating than appeasement

Heh heh.  I've seen interviews like that before with Jeremy Paxman.  He said something in an interview himself once, I can't remember the exact phrasing but it was something like:

When you're interviewing someone, you have a list of questions.  You ask question 1: they answer.  You ask question 2: they answer.  You ask question 3, and they avoid it, you keep asking question 3.

Yep, I wish there were more like Paxman on US news.
